[color=92278f]"Don't separate, or you'll never find your way once you lose it." [/color] And so Macey watched Leo gingerly, as he made his way out of the city and into the thick mist beyond.

[color=a2d39c]"And where is [i]he[/i] going?"[/color] Macey hissed quietly. [color=a2d39c]"He still has a debt!"[/color] Leo, probably being the strongest and most experienced of the hunters, would have made an invaluable addition to the hunt. And yet, here he was, travelling into the world of nothing but pain and sorrow by himself. 

[i]It's because I'm not strong enough to follow him...[/i] she sighed, with her eyes downcast. With any luck, Leo might be heading towards the direction of the Ravine anyway; although, this scenario was unlikely, Macey felt. [i]Well then. I'll show him. I'll bring down a big fat dragon and wear it's skull as a helmet. Then he'll see I'm worth having around![/i]

The scenery outside the city didn't really shock Macey. It looked every bit as miserable as the city itself - if not for the wooden walls, she wouldn't have noticed the difference. Still, the hunting group kept at their long and steady march, and within time she found herself pacing along Mu's side. 

[color=a2d39c]"Don't get me wrong. Your Monkey's cute, but don't start thinking we're friends. As far as I'm concerned, we're still strangers." [/color] Shortly after, whilst tripping for the umpteenth time in those past 15 minutes on what seemed to be a heavy metal clamp and the remains of a wooden track of sorts, she carried on, [color=a2d39c] “Who on earth constructs these things all the way out here anyway? Either there was a time when this place didn’t have monsters, or this legendary builder had a massive can of monster repellent. Either way, he need to learn his secrets.” [/color]

Mid rant, the troupe happened across a ghost like shadow of a man. It even took Macey a few moments to realise he was calling for help. 
[i][color=92278f]"try to not interfere with things around here... I hope you'll not try to save every person that you hear screaming and dying in the dark..."[/color][/i] Those words of warning rang back in her mind, just as she was about to reach out for the guy. She felt her heart break - before, back in the normal world, she would have helped a man like this in need in a heartbeat. Now, even people who were on the brink of death and desperately in need of help seemed to be a threat. It seemed like everything here happened for a cold and just reason - what if this man was just another child eater?
[color=a2d39c]
“What happened to you?”[/color] Macey asked coldly, making sure she was further than an arm’s length away to distance herself from him.
